Chennai Super Kings beat Rajasthan Royals by 5 wickets in IPL thriller
CHANDIGARH, Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Capt Amarinder Singh today hailed the Bombay High Court Verdict on the Udta Punjab movie.
“I am glad that the Court has cleared the movie with a single cut, otherwise left to a partisan Censor Board, the movie would have been bereft of its soul”, Capt Amarinder said in a statement here today.
The HC verdict, he added, has vindicated everybody who stood by the makers of the movie as it reflected the harsh reality of Punjab. Besides, he hoped, it will open the eyes of those who have always preferred to keep these shut and live in denial mode.
The former Chief Minister said that this should come as a lesson for the likes of Parkash Singh Badal and Sukhbir Badal who in their characteristic denial mode, instead of admitting and acknowledging the problem, had accused the film makers of defaming Punjab, like they had accused Rahul Gandhi when he raised the issue four years ago.
